What are your online cash results? I was also considering playing live, because everybody are talking how soft they are, anyway I am afraid about the variance, 100-200 pounds buy ins is pretty high for me, but I have crashed everything up to nl25 on pokerstars. What is your advice for that?

Live cash is a lot softer than online cash, so if you are crushing NL25 online (especially on Pokerstars) you will have no problems beating the £1-£1 / £1-£2 live games, IF you are able to adjust accordingly.

With any poker game / stake, you need some sort of bankroll in order to withstand the variance. You could take a shot at the £1-£1 games with £500 (five buy ins), but I would advise more like £1,000, then again, if you fancy a spin, rock up with £400 on a Friday night, and just go for it!

Yes, The Grosvenor Victoria Casino, on Edgware Road.

Usually 5 / 6 £1-£1 games everyday, around the clock!

Here is their twitter link...

Another end of month Results Review up on the blog.

Tough couple of months on the £1-£2 live tables in London.

I will keep ploughing on though, live blogging every single session straight from the felt!

Just gone and read the last week or so worth of posts on the blog, really enjoyed it. Will keep popping back every time this thread bumps and catch up. Sure we must have played together, I definitely would have been one of the punters driving the game...

Hey man! You didn't happen to come in with your brother for a drunken £1-£1 session last year around August time did you? I think I remember you guys ordering cocktail after cocktail, I think you said you were flying out the next day to get married or on a honeymoon or something!?


If that's you I remember your brother owning me pretty hard! LOL!

To be fair you are more of a shark/punter hybrid!

Seeing as today is the 1 year anniversary of my blog I thought I would give this thread a shameless bump!

Although I have neglected this thread I have been chronicling my live cash grind and life in London through almost daily live posts on my blog, as well as recording and publishing all my results transparently both at the end of each session and through results reviews at the end of each month (Menu > Results Reviews).

I have found the blog has given me focus and held me accountable, and it also acts as a fun 'memoir' to look back on.

If you think you might enjoy following the journey and struggles of a somewhat pigeon low stakes cash grinder check out my blog!

https://lowstakesgrinding.wordpress.com/





Although the content of the blog focuses on my grind over the last 12 months in the London cash game scene I just came back from a 3 week WSOP Vegas trip (Menu > WSOP 2019), certainly not quite as entertaining as The Gazzy Experience though I do offer a different perspective to the Vegas grind, a lot less baller, well, actually absolutely no balling whatsoever.









I thought I would share...
